Service Status Monitoring Using WhatsApp, Notion, and Python
Monitor Web Services for downtime and get instant updates on Whatsapp.
I am a full-time Software Engineer and Technical Content Writer. I code and write about React, Vue, Flutter, Laravel, Node, Strapi, and Python. I'm based in India🇮🇳 and currently work remotely for CloudAnswers.
I also author technical articles for tech startups that include Strapi, Twilio, CircleCI, Lightrun, CSS Tricks, Draft.dev and many other tech companies.
Websites and APIs go down more often than we’d all like. Wouldn’t it be great to get a WhatsApp notification when your favorite or most-used services are experiencing downtime?
So, I wrote this tutorial to help you set up automated monitoring for your favorite services and receive WhatsApp notifications when the status of your services changes. You'll use Notion for the database, Twilio’s WhatsApp Business API for receiving notifications, GitHub actions for running our job on a schedule, and we’ll code everything in Python.
